Does cleaning the endoskull hurt the items collectible value at all? Since it is not original condition from Sideshow.
I would say yes, it absolutely does. That doesn't mean someone wouldn't ever buy it from you, but you significantly modified a stock item. Call it a custom.
Also, I actually used nail polish remover with acetone. I had no idea of its affect on plastic at the time. I guess I was lucky because the acetone did not hurt the endoskull at all. It looks perfect. But I am wondering if there might be any future problems because I used the acetone??
You are the first I've heard of to actually use the acetone. We don't know if there are detrimental effects from using acetone, we just didn't want to try it when the non-acetone variety worked so well. Did you remove all of the cleaning residue shortly after you applied the acetone? If so, you should be fine, especially since you didn't notice anything wrong yet. Did you use any type of automotive chrome wheel polish when done?
Please let us know if you notice anything down the road.
